GANGS OF NEW YORK (2002) Movie Reaction Part 1/2! | First Time Watch | Martin Scorsese

[@MH-jx1hc]

The change in boxing stance cane from the introduction of gloves. Bare knuckle boxing tends to focus on body shots, rather than the head, which is hard enough to shatter knuckles and hands. The "old-timey" stance didn't come out of nowhere. They didn't lack for experience, it worked for that type of fighting.

[@imbaroud5273]

so old boxing rules you can't target the face?

[@Jordashian93]

Scorsese proves yet again there's nothing he can't direct and not turn into gold. An amazing piece of art, it's a truly gripping and hardening film that shows the sheer skill this man has.

[@coldflamebluedragon196]

I’m pretty certain Daniel Day Lewis doesn’t break character until he does the DVD commentary

Fact

[@Brendissimo1]

I don't read the script - script reads me

[@DiamondRain184]

That's why he wins all those awards. Because of his total immersion into every role he plays. His tools are the ones that trigger human emotion.

[@Brendissimo1]

@@DiamondRain184 Indeed. In that way, being an actor is really no different than being a rugby player, or a construction worker.

[@PALMERUSA21]

The Actor that threw the knife at Abe Lincoln’s picture would’ve played a great John Wilkes Booth Character.

[@linocut352]

Fun fact there is a bar in New York called the dead rabbit that takes its name and inspiration from the real life gang, highly recommend it

[@linocut352]

Very thrilled y’all are featuring this movie, it’s a great one, lengthy but pretty epic

[@DiamondRain184]

In Gaelic dead means extreme or very much. Rabied means tough guy. A dead rabied is an extreme bada**. But American reporters didn't speak the language, and also didn't care about the truth so long as they could sell papers.

The Five Points neighborhood was turned into Columbus Park, Chinatown and the Tombs prison.

[@HK7Roiz]

Daniel Day Lewis is the greatest actor ever, period.

[@tonyyul703]

FOR YOUR INFORMATION.... THE FIVE POINTS IS WHERE GROUND ZERO IS TODAY

[@jishin75]

I had the chance to visit the set here in Italy in Rome. All was there. The brewery, the church, the ships. The five points where still there with the central square. What an experience. Dante Ferretti did something great. I love this movie so much I can cite it both in English and Italian 😂 Legend says Scorsese needed a few buildings more and Tom Cruise went to Weinstein and got the money for his old friend Martin.

[@sspdirect02]

32:32 This is your textbook definition of a traditional theatre riot. Back then, the theatre was a place for public demonstrations. It was inspired in part by a theatre riot that took place at the Astor Theater. It involved two different actors playing Shakespeare’s Macbeth one American, one British. The working class and poor Americans wanted the American actor, the upper classes wanted the British actor. The British actor appeared and this is what happened. But then it got really ugly and spilled out into the streets. A Union army arrived and opened fire resulting in 21 men, women and children who were just walking in the streets being killed. So everything leading up to it spilling out into the streets was an average theater riot.

[@avionugrohoomar]

Great movie , great actors, but still laugh when Daniel character said "us natives or.." 😅

[@jusan7585]

Gloves changed the boxing stance a lot. Punching a man in the face was a sure way to break your hand. Before gloves body shots were regular and so the arm positions where lower, to cover up key organs that really hurt to get punched in

[@bigsarge8795]

Oh my god. Such a good movie. Daniel Day Lewis is an absolute master.

[@AnotherScribbler]

Fun note about that recruitment thing: the man who helped inspire Professor Moriarty from Sherlock Holmes got his start scamming recruiters at this time. He’d join up long enough to get his bonus, desert, lay low, and then do it again in a different place under a different name. When he burned all the recruiters in his home region he tried it in the south and ended up in nightmarish prison camp. He escaped there and swore to never go back. Became an international hero heir and conman. Adam Worth, IIRC, was his name.

[@Sev22suff]

That urban legend about the fire insurance is actually true. This was when insurance companies were just starting and people wanted that money and if they didn’t have your insurance you couldn’t do anything but sit and watch or fight the other company. Was it morally right? No. But it was the case.

[@Redplant99]

The fire brigades run by the insurance companies was more common in Great Britain. And there are many stories of these volunteer fire brigades brawling with each other for the reward & honour of putting out the fire they were at.

[@Vlad.Larionov]

Great reaction! It is very interesting to see your joint detailed reaction to the film Robocop 1987. This is a cool classic movie 🦾🤖🔥

[@allyliddiard7320]

This was the first movie me and my girlfriend went to see. Roll on 22 years and we've been married the best part of two decades and have two kids, so she obviously wasn't put off by the initial experience (of me or the movie). Looking forward to their reaction to the eye tapping scene...

[@fester2306]

He seems to think narration and commentary are the same thing.

[@CinePals]

You have to keep in mind this is a cut down to what are essentially longer highlights. The uncut version of the reaction on Patreon/KZbin Memberships is a different experience. As far as editing goes for these reaction videos, we have found it to be a more engaging video to cut to hosts commentary when available rather than cutting to a reaction where they are simply watching in silence. The latter, we will do as needed, but it's been our preference if we can to cut to commentary from hosts. It keeps it interesting for most viewers. That said, I think there's a balance to be struck and we're still figuring that out.

[@LaytonEversaul]

​@@CinePalsSome people don't understand the purpose of reaction videos.

[@sspdirect02]

This is not only my favorite of all of Martin Scorsese’s films, this is one of my favorite films period. A lot of that is due to Daniel Day-Lewis’s character as the most despicable racist gang leader.

[@davidwright4201]

Boxing changed with the introduction of gloves. Face shots were rare before that; a good way to break your hand and mostly boxing would be jabs, body shots and, depending on the era, wrestling (I believe)

[@stevealford230]

Bouts lasted for hours... 100+ rounds of boredom. But it was an era with a dearth of entertainment, so people took what they could get. Nearly everything entertaining or exciting in that age was either over in a flash(literally)/slash... or went on all day, lol.

There is a difference between colonists and immigrants though Colonists literally had to build everything themselves and often all died trying to. Immigrants go into an already established place.

It was the Bloodiest Invasion in History of the World They reduced our GDP Contribution to just 22% Thank God they were Not ruling in whole India They were only in Some Northern Parts that too many Saviours were there to Protect us That's why 22% was still there ------------------------------------------- And then came European Invaders The Portugese, French, Dutch and Most importantly British - before British Arrived our Literacy Rate was 100% - Yes 100% (because Literacy Rate is the Basic thing, means a person can read and write in atleast one language) - They Conducted Surveys and found 100% Literacy Rate - Schools in almost evey Village ( which of course were destroyed by Britishers and New English Education System was introduced to make Slaves and not Owners) - Which even British🇬🇧 were ashamed of themselves that's why they hide those surveys they conducted which was declassified few Years ago in British Museum - and when they left, literacy rate came down to 12% - Before British🇬🇧 our GDP Contribution to the world was 22% which came down to 4% in 1947 -------------------------------------------------------- Britishers Empire, The Majesty : Looted Destroyed Indian Education, Burned Libraries, Changed Historical Texts and Translated it according to their Agenda, Cut Fingers of Indian Cloth maker (I forgot the name), Shifted Materials grown in India 🇮🇳 for eg The Best Quality Cotton of Bengal to England and then Selling those times in 50-80% more times, Converted Peopl,e Made the Caste System Divided more People, Made so many Tribes as by Birth Criminal by Bringing Criminal Tribal Act, Systematically Killed People, destroyed and Looted Ancient Holy Temple (for eg Sun Temple in Konark etc) Multiple Famines (which never Used to happen before Britishers and Islamic Invaders as India was an Agricultural Land and had the Best Fertile Land After all this what they (Britishers) say they gave us? train 🚂 😌

How come this is being split in 2 parts? The average movie reaction is usually an hour or a little longer anyway.

[@lolmao500]

Some fact about firefighters in that era : The cohesive element of the firefighters, in essence, was their shared masculinity, and as such, fighting fires was only a part of their role, and in many ways almost a secondary thought compared to activities like racing their engines against other companies, parading around in snazzy uniforms... and beating the shit out of each other. The rivalries between fire companies could be intense. In Philadelphia, during the 1850s for instance, an arson spree saw a number of firehouses burned to the ground in the culmination of heated ones-upsmanship and competition, and literal street battles were not unknown in New York as armed firemen shot at other in their feuds. Other cities did not reach quite those heights, but the competitive spirit between companies regularly boiled over into street brawls between rival companies. A fire was often just an excuse to pick a fight, as the Baltmore Sun reported in 1847: We find bonfires built in some remote section of the city, merely to cause an alarm and draw the firemen together for the purpose of a fight, and have seen the apparatus of certain companies taken out when there was no alarm and run into a section of the city where a collision was most likely to take place.

I was born here, raised here, worked here, built here, employed people here. The place you ancestors came from would turn me away and not recognize me as their own. I am an American, and have never been anything else. I am a native to this place, like my father and grandfathers were.

Legally can be quite difficult. It's not a struggle I know having been born and grown up here but I've talked to many people who have faced many hurdles. Depending on which country you come from, even getting a visa just to visit can be complicated. Funny enough, the level difficulty that has been described to me just to get a visa for visiting is about the same level of difficulty I faced initially trying to visit India the first time.

JD Vance recently referenced this movie to show how immigration was bad. I guess he didn't get the memo that the audience isn't supposed to side with Bill and the Natives.

[@stevealford230]

Bill and "the Natives" were all members of immigrant families, too... they were what today would be considered "anchor babies," except that citizenship didn't work the same way back then. The movie framed their position under the current perspective of birthright citizenship rather than the views and legalities of its day. Back then... and technically still now according to the letter of the law... if your neither of parents is a citizen, then you're not a citizen, even if you're born here. That's what the 14th Amendment explicitly says, but because one Federal judge decided to interpret it differently, and because the media repeatedly told us all that if you're born here you're a citizen, that precedent is how the issue is approached now. That sociopolitical issue was the entire reason behind making the movie and framing it all the way it was framed... just like how almost every MCU movie after Endgame was about refugees and/or illegal immigrants. This movie may have been about Irish immigrants, but it wasn't really ABOUT Irish immigrants: it was political propaganda (whether you agree with the message that it's trying to condition the viewers to believe or not, whether you believe it's good programming or not, that's still what it is: propaganda).

[@samgradyfilm]

Vance is a deeply weird person.

[@lizzymayethebordercollie]

[@theawesomeman9821]

This film was released around when America was going through a lot of xenophobia against recent migrants and nativism was becoming mainstream. The director wanted to remind many nativist Americans that they too, are descendants of immigrants who faced discrimination in America during the 19nth Century.
